Read Original

The article details a software developer's struggle to choose between modal text editors (Neovim/Vim) and GUI editors (Sublime Text, VSCode). It compares the efficiency and memorization of esoteric commands in Vim with the visual affordances and ease of use in GUI editors, concluding with a temporary return to Sublime Text despite missing Vim's editing niceties.
